The New NAIA Infra Corp. (NNIC) said Thursday a planned water service interruption by Maynilad Water Services Inc. will affect Terminal 3 of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA).
The interruption, scheduled for 16 hours from 2 p.m. on Nov. 1 to 6 a.m. on Nov. 2, is due to maintenance and repair activities at Maynilad’s Putatan Treatment Plant.
NNIC assured passengers and stakeholders that it had prepared contingency measures to ensure continuous water supply throughout the duration of the interruption.
The company said it would utilize existing water reserves from T3’s water tanks which have a combined capacity of 3.2 million liters. Maynilad will also assist by providing water trucks to replenish these tanks as needed.
Water containers will also be strategically placed in restrooms throughout the terminal. Water trucks will also be on standby to refill restroom water containers if necessary.
NNIC asked passengers and stakeholders to conserve water during this period.
Simple steps like using water sparingly in restrooms and reporting any leaks can help ensure adequate water supply for all, it said.
The service interruption coincides with the peak travel period as thousands of passengers take flights for the All Saints Day and All Souls Day celebration.
New NAIA Infra Corp., led by San Miguel Corp., took over the operations and management of the country’s main gateway in September 2024.
